Y83-160 Turn-Out Hydraulic Metal Baler With 1600kN Force And 1600×1000×800mm Chamber For Scrap Recycling

The Y83-160 Hydraulic Metal Baler is a medium-size scrap metal compression machine designed for scrap recycling yards, metal processing factories, waste material collection centers, and recycling companies. It is mainly used to compress scrap steel, scrap iron, metal offcuts, light metal waste, non-ferrous metal scrap, and other compressible metal materials into regular bales.

This model is equipped with 1600kN main pressing force, a 1600×1000×800mm press box, and a bale size of 400–600×400×400mm. Compared with smaller metal balers, this model has a larger chamber and a more practical bale section, making it suitable for customers who want higher bale weight, reduced scrap storage space, and improved transportation efficiency.

Many recycling companies face similar problems in daily operation: loose scrap takes too much space, slows down loading, and increases transportation cost. Light scrap steel, metal offcuts, aluminum scrap, copper scrap, and mixed metal waste can easily create yard disorder and storage pressure if they are not compressed.

For medium-size scrap yards, the machine should not be too small or too expensive. A small baler may produce lower bale weight and limited efficiency, while an oversized machine may require higher investment and more space. The Y83-160 turn-out hydraulic metal baler is suitable for customers who need stable compression capacity, reasonable investment cost, and practical bale size.

The Y83-160 uses a hydraulic system to cold press loose scrap metal into regular high-density bales. The 400×400mm bale section is convenient for forklift handling, stacking, and truck loading, helping medium recycling companies improve scrap turnover efficiency.

The machine adopts turn-out bale discharge, which is simple and direct, with easier maintenance. The 22kW motor provides practical performance for daily scrap compression, balancing compression ability, energy consumption, and operating cost.

The Y83-160 hydraulic metal baler is suitable for many scrap metal compression applications.

It can be used in scrap yards to compress scrap steel, scrap iron, and mixed metal waste.
It is suitable for metal processing factories handling stamping offcuts, cutting waste, and scrap ends.
It can be used by non-ferrous metal recycling companies to compress aluminum scrap, copper scrap, and similar materials.
It helps medium recycling companies reduce loose scrap storage space and improve yard turnover.
It is suitable for scrap processing sites that want to improve loading density and reduce transportation cost.

During operation, the operator loads scrap metal into the press box. After the hydraulic system starts, the main cylinder, side cylinder, and top cover cylinder compress the scrap step by step, forming a regular bale. After the bale is formed, the turn-out cylinder discharges the finished bale for easier collection and transfer.

The whole process is cold pressing, without heating the material. The machine has a mature structure and clear operating process, making it suitable for long-term use in scrap recycling yards and metal processing factories.

If the customer mainly processes scrap steel, scrap iron, light metal waste, metal offcuts, and non-ferrous scrap, and wants a larger bale size than small balers, the Y83-160 is a suitable choice.

If the customer has limited yard space but stable daily scrap volume, a 160 ton class baler can improve compression efficiency.
If easier forklift handling and truck loading are required, the 400×400mm bale section is practical.
If the scrap is thicker, harder, or the daily processing volume is higher, a larger tonnage model may be recommended.
If the customer prefers simple maintenance and stable bale discharge, the turn-out structure is suitable.

WANSHIDA has more than 40 years of experience in hydraulic recycling equipment manufacturing. With our own factory and professional engineering team, we can provide customized solutions according to scrap type, bale requirements, local voltage, and site layout.

It can process scrap steel, scrap iron, metal offcuts, light metal waste, aluminum scrap, copper scrap, and other compressible scrap metal materials.

The bale size is 400–600×400×400mm, with a bale section of 400×400mm. The actual bale length may vary depending on material type and feeding condition.

Turn-out discharge has a simple structure and is easy to operate and maintain, making it suitable for small and medium recycling yards.

For a 160 ton class hydraulic metal baler and normal scrap metal compression, 22kW is a practical power configuration.
